Self Catering & Cottages

While it can be nice to know that you can just wander into your hotel dining room and know exactly when and where you’ll getting your dinner of a night, there is something very liberating about choosing a self catering holiday.
By going self-catering, you can enjoy your holiday at your own pace with no hotel dining room meal times to stick to and the ability to be a bit more flexible about when and where you have your dinner.
The UK has an abundance of self-catering accommodation in every region and some of the properties are unusual, so you can have a really unique break. Try staying in a ship or a shepherd’s hut, or maybe a barn conversion or a castle – there is something for everyone, whatever area you’re looking at, your taste or your budget.

As each region of the UK has some fabulous choices when it comes to food, it can be a shame to miss out by being tied into a meal plan, so self-catering gives you the perfect reason to try out as many local delicacies as possible. Many holiday makers choose to go self-catering as a way of planning a foodie holiday, but others like it for the flexibility. It is a good choice for anyone with small children or family members with medical needs as with multiple rooms and your own kitchen, you can easily accommodate naps, people needing to stick to a certain bedtime or mealtime regimine and you’ll have somewhere to store medication if need be.

Many of the self-catering properties in the UK are privately owned by an individual, who may or may not be onsite, as such, these properties have a real home-from-home atmosphere and they can often adapt their rooms and facilities to accommodate anyone that needs a bit of extra space or other aids.

Dog owners often prefer to stay in self-catering properties because they are commonly pet friendly and usually have a lot of outdoor space for them to explore, as such, self-catering is often a great option for anyone with service animals. Some accommodation providers really go the extra mile for their furry guests and often provide little extras like dog beds, biscuits and blankets to make sure your pets or service animals feel as welcome as possible. Do make sure to double check with your accommodation when booking if you want clarification on their animal policy.

Holiday makers planning to stay as a large group tend to find that self-catering properties include large holiday houses, or cottages that are near each other, so it is easier to holiday together. Holiday cottages are an ideal property, they are often compact and have all the amenities you could possibly need and you can have the whole site to yourself giving you privacy and flexibility when you need it.
